First visit to B&Bee was for my husband's bday. It did not disappoint and actually exceeded expectations. Atmosphere is great inside and on the patio. Food is delicious with unique flavor combinations. Really good wine list. Many options for vegans and gluten free clearly labeled and they were happy to make vegetarian items vegan for us. Be sure to make reservations in advance.

Amazing food and homemade gluten free bread! I love this place!

This place is the real deal! My gf and I have eaten here twice in one day. Everything on the menu is delicious and the service is fantastic. Huge portions too. They are also very celiac friendly and I always feel safe when I eat here. Favorite restaurant in Knoxville!

A dual birthday celebration led is too the Acropolis Grill. The food was delicious, Lucy our server was wonderful, and we had the opportunity to sit outside and enjoy beautiful weather. I had the Gyro Dinner with a Greek salad. The meat was tender and perfectly cooked, the pita bread was good, and the rice was well prepared. One of our party was provided a vegetarian menu, and they also provided a gluten free menu. We'll definitely be going back here!

Brynn Edwards

This place is incredible! As a celiac it is hard to find safe food that is also tasty and greko hits it out of the park every single time.

Rachel

We loved the buffet and salad bar. Gluten free pizza was delicious! This is a casual local dive for a comforting meal!

We haven't been to the Mad Greek for a couple of years. Tonight's dinner was above any expectation we previously had. They have definitely upped their game. Our waiter was super nice and gave great service. Very attentive and professional. I had the Greek Chicken with potatoes and okra. The okra was fresh made, not frozen. The Greek potatoes were creamy and crispy. My husband got chicken parm, and our daughter got Greek Style spaghetti with Alfredo sauce. Everything was hot, fresh, and DELISH! Cherry Bomb Cheesecake and Million Dollar Gluten Free Cake for dessert. Excellent! We will definitely be coming back soon.

Isaias was my waiter he was very kind and helped find answers to all my questions also very polite and patient. This was the best Olive Garden experience ever (because of the food quality and our kind waiter) and I may just be back! The atmosphere was welcoming and the food quality was truly amazing for an Olive Garden. Lots of gluten free options (they are flexible) which is good sense I am medically gluten free. Did I mention the food was exquisite?

Jacqueline Campbell

The menu was so creative and very accommodating to different needs (alcohol free, gluten free, vegan/vegetarian), and the service was absolutely incredible and so friendly! I can’t wait to give it another try!

Ariane Ireland

Such kind people! And lots of gluten free options clearly marked on the menu, the food was fresh and delicious!

We haven't been to Olive Garden in a while and decided to head over for an early dinner. It was enjoyable and delicious. Great service and many classic Italian Entrées, family-style meals, fan favorites, appetizers, amazing alfredo dishes, soups, and endless salad & breadsticks. Olive Garden has gone out of their way to present you with some incredible menu selections such as - Tour of Italy, Shrimp or Ravioli Carbonara, Lasagna, Spaghetti & Meatballs, Stuffed Chicken Marsala, Manicotti, Five cheese Ziti al forno, Herb Grilled Salmon, and more. They have Family Bundles and Pans to feed large families and groups. One of my favorites is the Zuppa Toscana Soup, made with spicy Italian sausage and creamy potato broth. It's gluten-free. If you haven't been to Olive Garden in a while. Plan to.

This location is extremely celiac friendly! When I mentioned I had celiac disease, Carolyn at the counter immediately changed gloves and washed her hands. She also told the other people working down the line to as well. Masterclass in customer service!

Delicious food with gluten free options! Lovely, welcoming atmosphere and even outdoor seating! Friendly wait staff who was attentive to detail! Spacious parking lot offering lots of parking. Our food was delicious and we brought dessert to go. Their cakes are simple scrumptious! Must try the million dollar cake if you are looking for a yummy gluten free dessert!

Was invited to the quaint, adorable, and inviting atmosphere of Frannie's Vegan Café today by a sweet friend who treated me to lunch... and it was wonderful! Besides the food being super fresh and healthy it was tasty and fun too. How is food fun? Here it just is, especially if you are new to vegan food. The fun comes from stepping out of the box, trying something new and seeing how it compares to food you are otherwise used to. Frannie's has a welcoming atmosphere that's coupled with a homey kitchen and cool decor. It felt like being on vacation in a new town when stepping inside with an urban meets country vibe. For added fun, I has a patron pick out my meal, which was the jackfruit Bar B Que sandwhich with a sideof carrots and seasoned potatoes. The gluten free lemon and blueberry cupcake hit the sweets craving spot too! It was great leaving satiated and not stuffed or too full, which I attribute to the quality of the food prepared there. Definitely worth checking out!

The Million Dollar Gluten Free Cake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Girlfriend and I went to the Olive Garden. I wanted to write a little review of the Famous Olive Garden. Olive Garden has been around for years, almost as long as I have know. When I was younger, I never understood the Olive Garden salad but I love the Breadsticks. It took time all these years later, the Breadsticks are still good but the Famous House Salad is absolutely wonderful. I wish that I could go to OG just for the Salad alone. The Homemade Soups are Chicken & Gnocchi, Pasta e Fagioli, Minestrone & Zuppa Toscana. The Dipping Sauces are marinara, homemade alfredo or five cheese marinara. There are Gluten Free options and there is a Kids Menu. Also, Olive Garden offers Catering too. Flipside -> The Lasagna Frites are not that good, I was very disappointed. Their restaurant is clean, plenty of parking, Wheelchair accessible as well, and The Staff are friendly & helpful.

I have loved this place a long time. I now have a severe reaction to dairy among with gluten and red meat and this kind of food is one of the few options I can actually eat and well... you have no sauces that are inclusive. They all have dairy minus tahini and let's be real.. it's not the sauce you want on your chicken. There's not when an option for plain mayo. It would be inclusive to have a garlic sauce that everyone can eat. Lots of other places don't use dairy.

Poor dine in experience. Lots of mistakes by server Sara. Allergens were not honored. We were served regular pasta and told it was gluten free. Despite asking to avoid onion and garlic we got that in our pasta. Side order was forgotten. Plates had hair strand and dirt particle on it. Photo attached. Last year had a completely different dine in experience this year has deteriorated.

Food was ok. Crazy high in calories and sodium. Not many options for gluten free and dairy free. But they did pull up the special menu to verify options. General Manager came over to confirm the order and the restrictions. The GF meal came out a little bit after the other meals.

Mrs Schuster

If I could give 10 stars, I would! This place is amazing, cozy, it has quiet, sofisticated ambiance. I would love to come back. I am gluten and sairy free, and chef made me deliciouse simple mediterranian grilled chicken with baked potato, dressed with amazing garlic pepper sauce, sprinkled with cruchy bakon bites. It was just heart warming to see gluten free dairy free meal done so well and presented so deliciousely.

This is my favorite restaurant in Nashville! I found it some days ago and the food is so tasty, fresh and I felt great afterwards. I was there with my husband and another couple for dinner and just had their lunch today. Our friends were gluten intolerant and I am vegan, and they had amazing dishes for all of us! The cocktails were the best too, especially the lavender gin drink! It’s not often a new restaurant hits all the marks like Epice. Top location on 12 South, cozy and beautiful environment for both lunchtime and dinner. You must try their crispy cauliflower side! 😍 Epice is great for any occasion; wether it’s a celebration or just a casual lunch - you'll have a great experience. Thank you!

Food is very delicious, especially offering gluten-free alternatives! There are tons of options and very informative when you're unsure what to try next! Staff was wonderful and knowledge, which was helpful! Good portions as well! I'm excited for family to try my leftovers since we all love trying some good Foodie spots

Schwarma was the best I had at a Mediterranean restaurant and our server was knowledgeable about what I should avoid on the menu for my gluten intolerance.
